The .is() function only tests the first element of a jQuery object.
What you want to do is "filter" the list and see if there's anything
in it after the filter (or a normal "select" via $()).
For your example:
if ( $('a#f_' + ide).siblings().filter('img').length )
{
// do this action
}
else
{
// do something else
}
Now that test will be "true" (ie not 0) on HTML like this:
<something>
<a id="f_something" ...>Blah</a>
<img ...>
</something>
If you want to check whether a link contains an 'img' then use:
if ( $('a#whatever img').length ) {
// contains an img
}
